Chuck,

Thanks for the link on parking brakes. I had never seen it. Very informative.

Matt, read here, well scroll down and look at the pics... They changed backing plates and brake shoes in 76 and the 73-75 had a recall. So you need
to know which style shoe you have. Low hole or hi hole. I googled tab lock washers and found a couple of places offering heavy duty for bout $12
each.

You are welcome Tom, it came off the net a few days ago. I didn't know either, it might explain some new brakes not working right on the earlier coaches. Tom Whitton wrote on Fri, 24 July 2015 21:15
